my house is a parallelogram with a 3 degree angle

our brain has this uncanny ability to spot parallel and non-parallel lines and for the last year i've been seeing them everywhere and then i was looking at the blueprints to see where the outside water came in and noticed the slight non-parallelism

This unconventionally remodeled bohemian style home features a one bedroom, one bath, a laundry/utility-room/shed, a fenced yard with native berry plants and innovative storage all done in 2021-2022. The shed and home have been updated with all new interior including new floors, new paint/drywall, tile, new maple drift counter tops, new glass stove top, ceramic and radiant heat, doors, etc.

It basically looks like they tried cramming in a rustic commercial kitchen into a mobile home.

One time i prank called a bear buildin workshop and said I wanted my mamaws ashes put in a teddy from where she loved them things so well... The woman on the phone did not skip a beat. She just said, "Brang her on down here. We've did it before."

Okay now add the average surface area to volume ratio of Americans over time (we fat), and see if home sizes are simply responding to our love of xl shirts and cargo pants

can you find a chart that does that with lot size, or one that tries to disaggregate price into size, lot size, and location attributes?

yeah that's the other problem, minimum lot sizes are too big

need some sort of bungalow court option

that or convert your lawn to low or no-maintenance with native grasses and plants, though that's obviously expensive

instead of thinking of sub 500sqft I would rather see 1200-1500 sqft so people and grow into them.

like if I moved to any other city I’m looking at base 2000 sqft house which is a lot for a family of 3 imo.

Lol that the 4 bedroom house we live in was median in the USA 23 years ago.

Looks like in NZ house floor area has been declining since 2013, I'd guess because of how insane prices are here nobody can afford anything larger which is resulting in densification (at least in the cities). To get square feet from square meters multiply by about 11.

Realtors around here are just straight up refusing to show you properties unless you get a mortgage pre-approval, that's cool. even though properties are sitting.

Perfect example in my neighborhood of how valueless house flipping is. They painted this whole house gray, added some pointless detailing, and replaced the kitchen countertops with granite. "Doubled" the value of the house. This is the fancy mailbox they built to replace the normal one. It fell apart after a few months because it was literally only held in place by some staples. All vibes no substance.
